Nebuleon SFRPG is a science fiction game set in an expanse space called the Nebuleos. It is populated with a number of races with the focus not on humans. Game play is oriented on character driven plots with little or no starship combat. This leads to rich game storylines that include the use of organizations, governments and the rich history provided in the rules.
Nebuleon uses the Iridium Standard System that has hit locations, statistics ranging from 1 to 20 for humans and up to 30 for super human ranges, and a percentile based skill system. Also included is the Psi system that is based on stat checks but allows for a large range of possible outcomes. A telekinetic can create a shield to stop kinetic weapons, a bridge to traverse a chasm or lift a card key off a guard's desk and bring it to their hand.
Nebuleon was created in the spirit of a grand story of exploration, either of space or self. Games range from the classic new planet to exploring ancient ruins of a lost civilization to opening trade routes with primitive people. There is very little meta-plot and a lot of basic story elements that create a setting that is useful to the GM and meaningful to players.
